My first questions is how is it that my ranger/archer is able to equip certain metal armors. For example the wyvern armor that the smith in Beregost can make, and the white chainmail suit you get that gives you +2 charisma and +5 vs death spells?

Another question is why do some armor not have the FULL Plate and Packing Steel protections? Again, for example the wyvern armor doesn't give you slash/crush/piercing resists. Just the vanilla basic AC stat?

I just got the composite longbow +2 that protects you from petrification from the Bluebell woods area that has all the spiders. Yet, when i equip it my thaco goes from 9 to 10 and my number of attacks just 2 per round, instead of the 9 thaco and 7/2 attacks per round i get from just a plain old long bow. They're both long bow based proficiencies, wouldn't the +2 magic bow give me better thaco and the same attacks per round? Was it nerfed a bit cause a ranger archer would just kill medusa's and basiliks with such ease?

Another possible bug is i can't equip Xan's moonblade, even with Xan...Never had that bug before.

Was able to fix the composite bow with Near Infinity. The proficiency value wasn't set to longbows, same with the attack per round value.

Not sure what mod all these items were added with, but alot of their values are messed up.....

Because they're not metal - one is made from ankheg scales and the other from white dragonscale or something.

Best to ask in that mod's forum on gibberlings3.net.

Another possible bug is i can't equip Xan's moonblade, even with Xan...Never had that bug before.

Some mod probably does this - check what Xan's class is and the usability flags on the moonblade with an editor (ShadowKeeper will probably do, or DLTCEP or Near Infinity).

Because it's from a mod I don't know about. Please report at the G3 full plate forum, with as much detail as you care to dig out about it.
